[QUOTE="valley commando, post: 775526, member: 72217"] I respect your views, but if we look at player development, all current internationals in Wales have at some point played club rugby unless they have come through a regional development squad, so this idea to play the regions in the BIC doesn't hold water, any players good enough will rise to the top it matters not whether they play for their club or region in the BIC, the point is that the competition had meaning to the clubs and the supporters, it now means nothing, nobody watches the regions in this and looking at the attendance figures in the European matches last weekend, hardly anyone watches the regions either, less than 8,000 at the Ospreys on Saturday, Ponty used to get that many when we played in Europe.
